If you dpn't like the prices don't pay. The beer is a rip off an poor quality, I havent had a beer in the ground for 4-5 seasons I bet - make a stand with your feet and wallet, you do have a choice to purchase outside the ground. 

 

Compare our season ticket prices with other clubs - I'd rather have cheap tickets and expensive beer, but there will always be complaints.......

 

The concourse is always 10 deep to get a beer or a pie, so there are people that are happy to pay and it's their choice, the demand is clearly there.

 

The bars in the SK4 concourse didn't seem as busy yesterday, may have been my timing but went down dead on HT and although there was a queue, it wasn't anything like the usual.

 

We grabbed a sausage roll from the shop en-route and stopped for a pint. Cost £10.40. In the ground that would be nearly £22. Completely unjustifiable difference.

No changes from last year from a staffing point of view.


Please tell me any other bar where you can pay for half a pint and they will serve it to you in a pint glass 80 perfect full. I love our incompetent concourse staff. :beer:   :D

They're agency staff I'm guessing, so every week it's likely it's their first time there. So slow it's painful.

I remember once I asked for a couple of pints. She walked off to get them. Put my phone on the card machine. It bleeped. Took the 2 pints away. Usually get a notification on my phone saying payment made (Google Pay). 

 

Turns out she hadn't actually processed the transaction and it just beeped because it recognised a device, but no money was taken.

Atrocious stuff.

exactly. The beer is abysmal. Why anyone chooses to miss the last five minutes of the first half in order to queue up and pay for it is totally beyond understanding!

Just seen a picture showing beer is up to £6.25 a pint at the open training session today at the KP.

 

Ridiculous, they're literally trying to push fans away 

It's actually now a requirement for 23/24. Security will be checking that all supporters have bought a pint (halves of shandy for U18s) or they wont be given a clapper and allowed to their seat.

 

The plan for 24/25 is that all fans must buy a £12 pint and a £10 hot dog.

 

25/26 will see the introduction of the wicker fan in the car park where all objectors will be placed, to be lit at the end of every home match for the delectation of compliant supporters.

Is it still the same choice as Chang or Guinness? As you couldn't pay me to drink Chang. Absolutely awful.

They're already paid and in the door by the time they can buy the shit beer anyway. Not sure why a fan would stop going to a game just cos they can't drink. 

 

If you can't get through a game without a beer (that you can't even drink while watching the game live anyway) then there's more of an issue with the individual than the club. 

 

It is extortionate and ridiculous pricing. It's sadly the same every stadium or arena these days.

Yeah it’s £6.25 for a chang. 
 

£6.30 for an Inch’s or a Rekorderlig. 

Absolute disgrace we were 3rd or 4th in the Premier for the most priciest pint last season another example of the club ripping off its fans no need for this  !

Taking the piss with those prices. 5 quid for a sausage roll 😆. Everything about the club is a rip off and a complete joke.

Are you sure the prices are set by the club? Are the retail outlets leased by the club and run independently? I don't use them so I am not sure.

I didn't spend a single penny in the concourse last season and I intend to do the same this year.

Same here- if you cant schedule your day around NOT eating shite pies or crisps then you need a health and fitness app!!!
